Welcome To The World Baby Girl

No, I am not about to tell you about the book by Fannie Flagg (although it is a really good book - I love just about everything I have read by her). No I am about to talk a little more about my new baby girl. Not that I have any new information to give. She has the most beautiful eyes - that seem to be looking right at you in the pictures they sent us. We placed her picture on our refrigerator (and one in a frame and both kids have one in their family photo albums and I have one in the diaper bag for showing off every time I see someone new and and and but I digress). Every time I walk by the fridge I talk to her and I say a prayer that she will be home with us soon. Big Brother and Big Sister both stop and look at her several times a day. Hubby has her picture at work and has shown her off to all of his co-workers. We are proud parents. We are very excited about the newest member of our family.

And on those lines I expressed to my mother that I really wanted a baby shower. Every baby deserves to be celebrated and both of the other kids had a shower. Having a shower just adds to the excitement, it is fun and it helps you make it through the wait time (which is killer if you ask me). So, I told my mom that I wanted a shower and she made a face at me and said no. That that was simply "not done." I was frustrated and disappointed. So, I did what any tweeting, blogging mom would do.

I complained to my friends on twitter and within a few hours my friend Slee from Paisley and Pretties had very graciously decided to throw me a virtual shower. A little later that day she got some help from Jess of MonkeyToes Reviews and Giveaways. Together they are working on all the details. I am not privy at this point to all that they want to do. I know they are asking for posts, youtube videos and there is even a twitter party in the works. You can go here or here for details and to let the ladies know if you will be attending (please, please attend - it is going to be so fun!!!!).

I am so honored and touched by the fact that these ladies are willing to do all this work for me. They are both fantastic ladies who are always there for me. I cannot believe that they are willing to do these things for me. I cannot possibly thank them enough. So, please stop over to them, let them know that you will attend (please do) and let them know how grateful I am to them for being such wonderful ladies.
